Living Is Like Dying Everyday

Life makes you cry
every second that goes by
who knows what's going to happen tomorrow
if everyday is filled with darkness and sorrow
lovers die
tears cry
i wonder why,
why do we try?
to live this sad life
that stabs you like a knife
it's not worth living
and you keep forgiving
people smile 
for a while
but this smile won't stay
on their face for everyday
because i know that it's not true
they just smile because they don't know what to do
you live and wait
you try to feel faith
you get sick and tired
you go to work and you get fired
you sit on your chair
looking out the window
and in a second you find your soul not there...
